This two-bedroom detached house located at 198A Old Birmingham Road, Marlbrook, Bromsgrove, is presented for sale at £425,000. The property is described as being situated in a desirable residential area. The key selling point is the planning permission already granted for a two-story extension to the rear and for the replacement of the garage with an annexe, significantly increasing the property’s potential size and value. This could easily translate to a larger number of bedrooms or living spaces, making it more suitable for larger families or individuals seeking extra space for working from home. The images provided show a property in reasonable condition that would benefit from some updates but is currently habitable. The property benefits from a larger than average garden providing considerable outdoor space. While specific details on square footage for local comparable properties are unavailable, the current list price can be considered competitive within the context of nearby comparable properties, given the scope of the planning permissions already secured. Transport links to local towns and rail services are available, although distances are noteworthy. The relative proximity of several schools adds to the property’s appeal. For potential buyers, it is important to factor in the cost of the proposed expansion works to realize the full potential of the granted planning permissions.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
